Dependable bbq for many years, l always get the ribs along with one other meat. I love their potato salad and frosted schooners of beer, too! Sitting at the bar is always fun and friendly!

Typically, I have pleasant experiences here and recommend this place to friends and family; yet I was disappointed today coming through for lunch.

I got the chopped beef sandwich plain, with a side of fries and a drink. Cost me $14.30 before tip.
The fries were warm & good, yet my sandwich was as completely cold.

Very disappointed, given this is somewhere I’ve grown up eating and cherishing with family and friends. I came today on my lunch break and I am only allotted 30 minutes for my lunch. I pay good money for food that wasn’t served fresh is very inconveniencing.

Although the location is decent, and the service is met by great members, I would’ve loved to been served a warm meal for what I paid.

I suppose next time I come through I’ll specify that I would want a warm chopped beef sandwich.

Had the sliced brisket and ribs. Was very good. Not a fan of their BBQ sauce, but otherwise good. Tried and liked, ranch style beans, slaw and the green beans. Do not care for their home cut fries. Greasy and soggy.

BBQ was very good. Very tender and great flavor, serving size on the small size. Fresh Fried potatoes were very good also. Ordered the sliced plate.

Quaint part of town and the facade is newer.

I met an old friend here and this is a favorite haunt for him so it’s conflicting not to provide a resounding affirmation of his faith.

The inside is a stark contrast to the outside and has an older school wooden smokehouse feel. Beer and wine bar is available.

The staff is welcoming and friendly. The menu has that old time feeling of letters on a push board and is very direct and concentrated.

I went with his recommendation of the chopped beef sandwich, BBQ beans and green beans. The BBQ had a strange bark that was a little too crusty and had a foreign hint of something I can’t identify, likening to lighter fluid getting in the pit. The BBQ beans were meaningless and had a bland, chalky consistency. Likewise the green beans were straight out of a can with no noticeable seasoning or even onion, bacon, etc. to kick them up.

They do serve cold beer.

As I mentioned, I’m sad really to write, but I imagine I will get another chance to try it with my buddy and will try other options.
